    Annual delivery charge is fantastic! All the family ordering from my account too

    It should be pointed out that it might be a lot more awkward buying from the UK after they finally jump of the Brexit cliff, and the transactions are of a different "construct". People might get stung for such things as import handling charges, the same as applies from buying from non-EU countries now.

    Plenty of companies don’t cover the price of returns if the item doesn’t fit, sports direct for one, nobody misread what was said the poster didn’t need to gove a WARNING it’s on the website and PayPal should be used to cover returns
    Simple

    but the poster wasn't complaining about paying for a return in the post. They simply mentioned to watch out as there is a cost as a warning to those that may buy clothes - which is totally fair. And the next poster sorta came like a ton of bricks with the usual aggressive crap as if some big company needed defending in some sort of way.

    BE AWARE THERE IS NO FREE RETURN WITH THIS COMPANY.

    RETURN AT YOUR OWN COST TO THE UK!

    7 items, either didn't fit or rubbish :rolleyes:

    Consider this a do not use alert from a disgruntled customer.

    EDIT: Was not aware of returns option if using PayPal, thanks for that. But if I buy €70 of goods from a .ie domain and then find I have to pay €30 for tracked postage to return to the UK the "bargain" piece isn't really working for me.

    but paypal give you the return postage back to the value of 30 euro so items can still be bought at bargain prices

    yes they were, they posted about returning at your own cost in capital letters like it was a shouting news bulletin

    Yes to warn those new customers before ordering that there is a cost. It doesn't mean its negative to the company. Lots of companies charge for returns and lots don't.

    All I can see is pure advice given that may save a bargain hunter from falling foul of the returns policy.

    The original poster was highly aggressive back to the poster, that's what provoked a reply in kind.

    Anyway. Don't want to further derail this thread.

    If you’re going to shop online then you should do your research, PayPal free returns has been covering returns for years now, they had my back 20 times last year to various companies without a problem

    Btw what’s with all the capitals lol

    Ref PayPal returns etc, could you elaborate pls ref sports direct,
    Am I right in thinking if u pay via PayPal returns are free to SD? Or do you pay for returns and claim afterwards via Paypal? Thank you.

    There's not. I wish there was. In one day I ordered 3 seperate individual things. 3 DPD couriers. 3 parcels. Think the 3 things were all under 20e *guilty emoji*

    I avoided this mainly because there is a reference in the terms and conditions that struck me as a fair usage type statement so in theory they could revoke it I guess if misused

    Lads topcashback are doing 13% cashback for new M&M customers but it expires today

    https://www.topcashback.co.uk/m-and-m-direct/

    Just made a new M&M account and placed a rather large order so should have a few bob cashback if it tracked.

    I have been looking at the M&M site the last few days rather obsessively, and IMO it wipes the floor with Sports direct

    Me either and have kept stuff as it would have been expensive to return.
